Three Festival of Fae special events are coming to MTG Arena, promoting Magic: The Gathering’s Standard Throne of Eldraine set.
Beginning Nov. 3, the Festival of Fae launches in MTG Arena. Artisan is the first of three events, structured around what a Magic character might find in an Artisan market.
How do I construct an Artisan deck?
Artisan is a Magic format using only Common and Uncommon cards in Standard. A deck needs to contain a minimum of 60 cards, with up to four copies of each.
There are four cards that are banned from the Artisan event, however.
- Cauldron Familiar
- Cavalcade of Calamity
- Gates Ablaze
- Persistent Petitioners
Is there an entry fee?
There’s a one-time entry fee to play the Festival of Fae Artisan event in MTG Arena of 5,000 gold or 250 gems. Losses aren’t recorded and a player can earn rewards for up to five wins. There are no restrictions on the number of wins a player can achieve.
What are the rewards in Artisan?

- Two wins: Beanstalk Giant Showcase card style.
- Three wins: Order of Midnight Showcase card style.
- Four wins: Giant Killer Showcase card style.
